Do These Figures Sound Ok

[R33GOD]

just wanted to know if my car is a dud or not. last time we dynoed with the stock cooler, stock turbo, pfc, and full 3 " exhaust, car made 175rwk on 13 psi and 400nm flywheel torque. is that good or bad?

[moonus]

sounds a bit high but a good result for only exhuast and ecu

[R31Nismoid]

its normal

doesnt sound high at all. 13 psi with pfc, and exhaust. i would have thought it was slightly low if anything.

mine made 182rwkw at 10psi with 3" and unichip. it was making 170rwkw before the tune.

Sounds normal. Put a quality fmic on it and you should see better repeatable results (ie: better flow, less heat soak).

Munkyb0y: those figures sound high; best way to compair is to have the cars on the same dyno, on the same day, operated by the same tuner. I could make you car read 280rwkw, just by sticking the air temp sensor in the exhaust

I got about the same with the same mods in the early days. I was about 160-65 from memory.

Figures sound right dude I got 187rwkws intercooler, turbo back exahust, CAI, and blown coil packs, with a road tuned PFC installed running 10psi

[R33GOD]

it was tuned on a 36 degree day if that matters

[R31Nismoid]

You've been told its normal... either way, its normal!

there's a 6 litre ss thunder ute out there that doesnt think those figures are high

all these figures are in the right ball park. the tune got me an extra 12rwkw on an already tuned unit. so there's one variable right there.

How can you have 400nM dam it. LOL. i make 217 rwKw and just get to 400nM

[R33GOD]

no idea lol it just made alot of torque

[rev210]

looks very normal.

there is a range of dyno figures that covers 'normal'.

Bottom line is you aren't going to win any dyno competitions with a stockish gtst, if thats the goal.

Use the dyno as a tuning tool only to avoid needless bulldust sessions. Then again the forums might not exsist if that happened?

[R33GOD]

the goal was to see if my car had potential. not to win any dyno comps

[MANWHORE]

yeh, she fangs mate. Dyno comps aren't important. dyno figures differ from day to day, dyno to dyno - if she chirps seconds, then that's all that matters.

[R33GOD]

she used to chirp 3rd at that power level lolz. upgrades will b finished in 4-6 weeks (grins)

she used to chirp 3rd at that power level lolz.

If that's the case best get some better quality tyres

[R33GOD]

hahahahaha. its just my good drivin

[Cubes]

Ignore the torque its tractive effort; gearing, tyre/wheel size, gear alters the reading.

Dyno won't tell you too much about that on a stockish car. Compression test will give you a basic picture of engine health. Otherwise there isn't any more or less potential in your car compared to any other healthy R33 gtst.

You can chirp the tyres in plenty of slow gutless cars provided the tyres and suspension are crap enough. Not much of a bragging right.
